Why is 'Chicago Med' Season 5 Episode 15 not airing this week and when will the next episode air?
The first question on everyone's mind is whether a new episode of 'Chicago Med' is airing on February 19, Wednesday, or not. Unfortunately, all three 'Chicago' shows are going on a mini-break this week and won't be back until next Wednesday, February 26.
However, since we are inching closer to the end of the season, the stories on the show are more important and scattered than ever, leading us to wonder what will happen in the season finale.
In the next episode, Dr Daniel Charles (Oliver Platt) and Dr Natalie Manning (Torrey DeVitto) are treating a patient who is fully invested in pretending to be someone other than himself. It will be interesting to see how Natalie works with Daniel.
In her previous cases with both Dr Will Halstead (Nick Gehlfuss) and Dr Crockett Marcel (Dominic Rains), Natalie had taken a stand and made decisions without consulting the other doctors -- and both cases ended tragically. Whether Daniel might be able to reign in Natalie or whether she may act differently around him remains to be seen.
Meanwhile, April Sexton's little brother, Dr Noah Sexton begins to doubt his abilities as a doctor. Noah was missing for a season or two before he reappeared this season. We've seen him working closely with Crockett and we hope he does well.
Crockett will be working with Dr Ethan Choi (Brian Tee) this time around and they will be faced with a tough ethical decision. Previously, Crockett and Ethan were at odds -- not for the reason viewers would expect, which is that Ethan's now-fiancee shared an illicit kiss with Crockett -- but they managed to look past their differences. Will the case in the next episode drive a wedge between them again?
Finally, the synopsis suggests that Will puts his faith in an addict. By now we know that the addict is Dr. Hannah Asher (Jessie Schram) who he first met when he revived her after she overdosed and again when she thanked him. The next time he saw her was in the hospital, learning she was a consulting gynecologist. In the last episode, Will had convinced her to go to rehab. Will she follow through or could Will be putting his faith in the wrong person?
'Chicago Med' airs on Wednesday nights on NBC at 8/7c. The next episode will air February 26.
